The Prelude is a nice mid-range pen offered by Sheaffer at the end of other product lines (like the Targa). They’ve drastically reduced the available finishes, though some are still in production, and I suspect the older ones will quickly become prized. While it lacks the grace of the inlaid nibs, the finish is gorgeous, and it’s a reliable and well-performing writer, roughly on par with Waterman’s Phileas (of which I’m also quite fond!), but with a slightly more substantial feel to it. |
